Superior Drummer 3.3.6 + MacOS

General

The Mac AAX now has native Apple silicon support.
Song Track

In the time signature editor, it is now possible to move several time signatures at a time.
The numerator in the time signature editor is now limited to 127 instead of 32.
E-Drums

Positional sensing has been added to the snare in the DTX-PROX preset.
BUG FIXES
General

Loading a SD2 user preset with X-drums did not work well in some cases – the X-drums did not always become “added instruments” in SD3 but would sometimes use empty “standard” positions, which could lead to MIDI mapping issues.
Removing an added instrument which is not the most recently added one, saving the project and loading it will no longer cause a crash.
Grid Editor

In the Channel Aftertouch editor, when a new block was inserted, the other blocks got smaller.
Mixer Tab

Fixed an issue with the EQ effect – the curve was not correct for nodes in Peak mode with slopes 12 dB/oct or 24 dB/oct, particularly with low Q values.
On Mac, ctrl-click on an empty effect slot could cause a crash.
MIDI Mapping Layout Window

The description for “Dim Extra Notes” would say it was unavailable when it was available and vice versa.
E-Drums

Alesis Surge and Nitro preset fixes (affecting note numbers for hats, ride and crash).

Superior Drummer 3.3.3 is now available to download using the Product Manager or from the ‘My Products’ area in your Toontrack account. Please note that version 3.3.3 is required for the support of Superior Drummer 3 products released from this point forward (Q3 2022).

BUG FIXES
General

Using more than one CPU core (in Settings > Performance) was a potential source of various random crashes and freezes. It should be safe now.
Loading a Drums and Mixer Preset from the EZdrummer 3 core libraries or Big Stage EZX did not properly set the values of the macro controls.
On Windows, loading an auto-save would incorrectly treat it as a normal project and it would be added to the Open Recent menu.
Song Track

In Steinberg hosts when host playback was started and the plug-in window had not yet been opened, MIDI on the song track would not always be played at the beginning, depending on the playhead position and where it had last been stopped. Performing an Audio Mixdown would also result in silence from the song track before the position was reached where playback had last been stopped.
In Steinberg hosts, starting playback of the song track inside the plug-in (with the host still paused) not would not work properly if the SD3 playhead had been moved to an earlier position than the host playhead (with the Follow Host setting on).
Mixer Tab

It did not work to change sliders and knobs in the mixer channels with the setting “Mouse wheel changes controls in scrollable areas” on.
Tracker Tab

Looping was not working in the tracker.
Standalone

It did not work to open a project file from Finder/Explorer.

Known issues

Inserting the VST 3 in Cakewalk can cause a crash.
Previous Favorite marks for User MIDI, linked MIDI folders and third-party MIDI folders will be lost. User MIDI needs to be re-synced. Linked MIDI folders and third-party MIDI folders need to be re-added. More info here: https://www.toontrack.com/forums/topic/my-favorites-are-gone/#post-2929206

BUG FIXES
General

MIDI files dragged out from SD3 no longer contain a key signature, so no SysEx track should get created in Cubase (even with the “Auto Dissolve Format 0” Cubase option on).
Controlling a knob or slider using MIDI Learn, it is now possible to set the value to exactly 25%, 50% and 75% instead of just very close to those values.
Alternate Hits on stacked instruments made the instrument become muted after saving and loading a project. In projects with this issue (saved with version 3.2.5-3.2.7), the Alternate Hits option needs to be manually disabled on the affected stacked instrument, or the stack should be recreated.
Cancelling the saving/naming of a new MIDI Learn preset would cause a crash.
Fixed a potential crash involving changing certain mic parameters after having replaced an instrument.
Song Track

MIDI dragged from the song track did not include any time signature changes.
Dragging an external MIDI file to an empty song track did not change the main tempo of the song track.
There were cases when dragging an external MIDI file to the track did not trigger a dialog about importing tempo or time signature when it should have (when the tempos or time signatures differed in certain ways).
“Import Time Signatures from MIDI File” did not update the main time signature display.
Pasting or removing sections in the time signature editor did not update the main time signature display.
Going to Edit Tempo or Edit Time Signatures with minimized song tracks would only properly unminimize the current song track, so closing that editor and switching to another track would show that track in a bad state.
Edit Play Style

Changing Amount and then deselecting the song block could cause a crash.
It was possible to open the instrument selection menu even though it is not visible in Edit Play Style.
Grid Editor

Pinch zooming now works in the grid editor (using a trackpad on Mac).
Tooltips for the nudge buttons were flipped right/left.
Song Creator

Changing libraries or changing scale no longer removes MIDI from the MIDI drop zone.
Shutting down SD3 while Song Creator was searching for results would cause a crash.
Saving a song structure from the current track would change the name of the track to the name of the structure (starting with “New Structure”), though it would not show up in the GUI at once.
Drums Tab

Library names in the instrument right-click menu were often inadvertently shown in capitals.
Grooves Tab

Dragging a Groove Part onto a song block did not merge the instrument into the block but would replace the entire block – bug introduced in version 3.2.7.
Selecting a groove part, changing libraries and then dragging the groove part no longer causes a crash.
In Tap2Find, it was possible to open the instrument selection menu even though it is not visible there.
Mixer Tab

The Valve Distortion Box effect would sometimes sound too distorted for a while after it was added or a preset was loaded.
Bleed mute buttons in the mixer were never shown as active after loading a project/preset or changing the GUI scale.
It did not work to load only selected mixer channels from a Drums and Mixer Preset (by using “Select Parts…” in the preset menu).
Loading only selected mixer channels from a preset now properly clears the solo state on those channels. The Clear Mute and Clear Solo buttons in the mixer were also not updated.
Tracker Tab

Fixed a crash that could happen when loading a project where the tracker audio is missing.
Standalone

The standalone can now use ASIO devices with a buffer size larger than 2048 samples.

Groove parts can’t be drag-merged into existing song blocks. Workaround: Right-click the groove in the browser, select Copy, right-click the song block and select Paste on Selected Block(s) > instrument part.

Known issues in Superior Drummer 3.2.6
2021-10-06

Dragging a velocity node selects and drags all nodes for the instrument. Workaround: Use the velocity slider to the left, or drag the node while holding Shift (or Ctrl on Windows or Cmd on Mac).


Release notes for Superior Drummer 3.2.6
2021-10-05

Superior Drummer 3.2.6 is now available to download using the Product Manager or from the ‘My Products’ area in your Toontrack account. Please note that version 3.2.6 is required for the support of Superior Drummer 3 products released from this point forward (Q4 2021).

CHANGES
General

Added support for pinch zooming with trackpad on Mac – on the song track, in the grid editor and in the tracker.
Grid Editor

When a different song block is selected on the track, the note selection now changes to become all notes in the rows/instruments that are selected (like it worked in version 3.2.4).
If the grid editor is visible, selecting a song block will move the playhead to the beginning of the block and scroll the grid editor (like it worked in 3.2.4).
Grooves Tab

Third-party MIDI located in the Toontrack MIDI folder is yet again shown and formatted in the browser like Toontrack MIDI (reverts a change in 3.2.5).
BUG FIXES
General

In some versions of Pro Tools 11 and 12, trying to insert the plug-in would result in AAE error -14018.
The AU should no longer crash when added in REAPER with one track per bus.
Scrolling using trackpads and similar on Mac has been adjusted in many views so that it is as fast as in the OS (standard applications).
CC values were exported and played back with too large delta (in version 3.2.5 only). It’s now even lower than before so that hi-hat splashes sound better.
Song Track

Deleting a song track no longer causes a crash.
Dragging a MIDI block into a hole between two blocks on the song track did not shorten the dragged block to fit the hole.
Dropping files with multiple tempos/time signatures did not work properly.
“Select Containing Folder in Grooves” is no longer disabled for song blocks that are created by dragging from the Song Creator.
Grid Editor

Changing libraries with the CC editor being open in the grid editor would cause a crash.
Some notes that should not have been shown were visible at the end of a block and were silent.
With the pencil tool active, moving the mouse in the grid editor would show and move a horizontal line in the velocity editor instead of a vertical line.
Drums Tab

Removing an instrument could in some cases lead to a crash.
Changing a part of a stacked instrument was incorrectly handled in some cases and a message that the library was damaged could appear.
Loading a rack tom on the “Hightom” position in Gospel EZX did not use the graphics of the loaded rack tom.
Mixer Tab

Several crashes involving enabling, moving and adding effects have been fixed.
Changing libraries with an EQ window open would cause a crash.
Changing Q for a node in the EQ window using mouse wheel with “natural scroll direction” was inverted.
E-Drums

The ride and some other instrument mappings were broken in presets TD-20, TD-27, TD-30, TD-50 and DTX-PRO (in version 3.2.5 only).
Improved cymbal choke support in some Medeli presets.
Improved support for AUX triggers (Roland/Yamaha/Alesis).
Added Alesis Surge preset.
Added Yamaha DTX Series preset.
Some renaming of Yamaha presets to better represent their purpose.
Standalone

On Apple silicon Macs, the standalone would always start in Rosetta mode.

Superior Drummer 3.2.5 is now available to download using the Product Manager or from the ‘My Products’ area in your Toontrack account. Please note that version 3.2.5 is required for the support of Superior Drummer 3 products released from this point forward (Q3 2021).

CHANGES
General

Added native Apple silicon support to the VST, AU and standalone. The About dialog says “64-bit ARM” (instead of “64-bit Intel”) when running in native Apple silicon mode.
New standalone and document icons on Mac, in Big Sur style.
An error dialog will now be shown if dragging out from SD3 fails because a temporary file could not be written.
Grid Editor

While drag-inserting notes with the Pencil Tool, you can now erase/undo notes before releasing the mouse button.
In the CC editor, lines are no longer drawn outside of song blocks.
Drums Tab

Added “Show in Finder/Explorer” option on instruments that use imported audio files.
Grooves Tab

In the Groove Parts view, Hi-Hat Pedal is now included in Hi-Hat instead of being separate.
All User MIDI operations (rename/add/remove) are now threaded operations instead of locking the GUI and will show a progress dialog.
Mixer

The EQ now supports other Slope values than 6 dB/oct in Peak mode.
The EQ curve is graphically smoother now.
The mixer no longer has a maximum number of effects.
E-Drums

Added settings in the E-drum page to control how ringing hi-hat sounds respond to pedal movement.
Added a preset for Yamaha DTX-PRO.
Added a preset for Alesis Command.
Added several Medeli presets.
Standalone

On Windows, two new device types are available: “WASAPI (Exclusive Mode)” and “WASAPI (Low Latency Mode)”.
“None” can now be selected in the output channel list to make the output silent.
BUG FIXES
General

Tooltip placement has been improved.
It no longer crashes if you select “Save As” in the Drums & Mixer preset menu and click Cancel.
Loading an SDX factory preset that uses sounds from another SDX no longer shows an error dialog if that other SDX is not available. (Such presets exist in Custom & Vintage, Allaire and Hit Factory.)
Loading only macros from a preset with more drums the currently loaded one could cause a crash.
“Save a Copy” in the File menu would incorrectly change the project name in the standalone.
In some libraries, the floor toms kept their graphics when loaded on rack toms.
In some hosts, closing the plug window when a modal dialog was open would leave the faded background when the plug window was reopened.
Sometimes the memory display wasn’t updated if the loading finished quickly – it happened mainly in cache mode.
Force Cache Mode was not working correctly after startup, until a project or a new library was loaded.
There are no longer double spaces in the library names “The Classic EZX” and “Indie Folk EZX” (there was an extra space before “EZX”).
The PreSonus ATOM pad controller should no longer switch to keyboard mode when connected to SD3 (VST) in Studio One.
Song Track

Starting playback in Cubase with Follow Host activated would sometimes trigger notes located before the playhead on the song track.
Turning on Follow Host will now immediately sync to the host timeline instead of waiting for the host to play.
“Future Hit” articulations were not silenced correctly when transport was stopped.
Aftertouch was not cleaned up on MIDI dragged to the song track, which could lead to cymbals getting stuck in choke mode.
Dropping MIDI with a different time signature on an empty track would insert a new time signature node instead of changing the time signature of the whole track.
MIDI events from muted song blocks were incorrectly included in exported MIDI files.
Playback did not stop at the end of the song track in the standalone.
In DAWs, when playback comes near the end of the song track, the song track is automatically extended.
Merging two blocks did not analyze a new power hand but left it undefined.
Zooming in very much could lead to the resize cursor not showing over song block edges.
An active e-drum preset was not correctly applied when MIDI was dragged to the song track.
Edit Play Style

In Latin Percussion EZX, MIDI could not be pasted on the Cajon in Edit Play Style.
Merging MIDI blocks while in Edit Play Style made the Power Hand sign disappear.
Grid Editor

Removing a song block that contained selected notes could cause a crash.
Splitting a song block and then clicking a note in the grid editor could cause a crash.
Changing libraries or loading a project no longer resets the grid editor tools, zoom, scroll position and the value editor mode.
Using Pencil Tool to insert a Future Hit note while also holding Ctrl on Windows or Alt on Mac and dragging the inserted note would create two notes, one of which was not created properly, causing a crash when trying to manipulate it.
The aftertouch editor was not updated after undo or moving song blocks.
Clicking on an aftertouch block with Pencil Tool now correctly deletes the clicked block. Before it would delete the blocks that were already selected, and when then another block was clicked, a crash could occur.
Changing selection of song blocks would also deselect notes in the grid editor.
Resizing a song block to make it smaller now adds CC nodes at the resized edge to be shown and edited in the grid editor. This also preserves a curve that was created with any nodes outside the new block area.
The “Select” menu would sometimes make the preview of selected incorrectly flicker when you moved between the menu items.
Fixed a few scenarios involving the “Select” menu that could cause the wrong notes to become selected.
Song Creator

Choosing Replace All on “Source File” in the Song Creator resulted in empty song blocks.
Drums Tab

In MIDI Mapping, it was sometimes not possible to preview articulations by clicking far left on the labels.
Clicking below the articulation list in Search for Instrument could lead to a crash.
The (first) One Shot percussion pad is now called “One Shot 1” instead of “Instrument 1”.
Loading a user sample and then changing presets could cause a crash.
Fixed a potential crash when replacing a drum with a user sample or undoing such an action.
Grooves Tab

The scrollbars in the Grooves tab are no longer reset when a new library is loaded or when the window is rescaled.
Adding a User MIDI subfolder was not working.
Excluding folders didn’t work properly in all cases.
Clicking the web shop icon while playing would redownload the file and hide the popup immediately after showing it.
The web shop popup is now closed if the web shop icon is clicked again.
Closing the web shop popup (using the X in the popup) didn’t properly toggle the button off again.
Dragging from the song track to a User MIDI folder would inadvertently append “.mid” to the display name.
Tap2Find would not find anything if notes were only tapped into the second bar.
Dragging a groove from the search result list with something selected in Groove Parts showed the merge drag symbol although it would not merge if dropped on an existing block.
Dragging from Groove Parts did not always result in the correct Power Hand on the song block.
Selecting a groove part and dragging from the search result list could also transfer an opening hit that was not part of the selected groove part.
“Select Containing Folder” didn’t work on files that were missing on disk.
Mixer

Fixed a crash that could happen when adding an effect to a multi-selection of channels.
Opening an effect side chain menu and, without closing it first, opening the effect menu and removing the effect no longer causes a crash.
Tracker

The “Blend” knob in the tracker now controls the volume instead of the velocity.
Tempo nodes now snap to the closest bar when they are added or dragged.
If a certain number of tempos were set in the tracker, exporting MIDI could cause a crash.
Inserting or changing a time signature in an empty tracker project no longer causes a crash.
E-Drums

Several Medeli presets were triggering the Hi-Hat Edge instead of the Tip.
Small adjustments/improvements to the Pearl Mimic Pro preset.
Settings

Resetting the metronome settings did not reload the default sounds.
It is no longer possible to add an SDX path that is the SL- folder inside an SDX download.
In Settings > Libraries/Paths, the detection of a volume/disk being unavailable was not working – it would trigger for all invalid library paths on Windows and for none on Mac.
